In Against the Grain by Carolyn Hay, Henry Jamieson has a dream. Where some people see barren land, Henry only sees opportunity. After a lifetime of hard work, Henry Jamieson has built himself an empire of Manitoba grain. But who will take the reins of the family business if his son David doesn’t wake up and seize the opportunity? Seen through the eyes of his young granddaughter, the story of Henry’s life is distilled into one fateful and unforgettable moment. This sweeping family drama provides lots of laughs to balance the epic struggle between father and son. Based on the playwright’s family history, Against the Grain follows one man’s rise to power as he sacrifices everything for the sake of the almighty dollar.
